  • HURRICANE LANE (EP142018) 15-28 August 2018
    NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER CENTRAL PACIFIC HURRICANE CENTER TROPICAL CYCLONE REPORT HURRICANE LANE (EP142018) 15-28 August 2018 John L. Beven II National Hurricane Center Derek Wroe Central Pacific Hurricane Center 16 December 20191 GOES WEST VISIBLE IMAGE OF LANE AT 0000 UTC 23 AUGUST NEAR MAXIMUM INTENSITY. Lane was a long-lived tropical cyclone that moved across the eastern and central Pacific as a major hurricane for six days, becoming only the fifth category 5 hurricane (on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale) on record in the central Pacific basin. Lane produced significant flooding and fanned devastating wildfires across the Hawaiian Islands. 1 Original report released 2 April 2019. Updated 16 December 2019 to include best track analysis, summary, verification, impacts, and damages from the Central Pacific Hurricane Center. Hurricane Lane 2 Hurricane Lane 15-28 AUGUST 2018 SYNOPTIC HISTORY Lane was spawned by a tropical wave that emerged from the coast of Africa on 31 July. The wave moved steadily westward across the Atlantic with little or no convection for the next several days, and eventually reached the eastern Pacific on 8 August. Once over the Pacific, the associated convection gradually increased, and the system first showed signs of organized convection on 11 August. Thereafter, the convection became intermittent for the next few days, which slowed development. Despite the lack of persistent convection, a low pressure area formed in association with the disturbance on 13 August about 765 n mi south-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula. Convective banding gradually increased over the western semicircle of the low as the system moved generally westward, and this led to the formation of a tropical depression by 0000 UTC 15 August about 935 n mi southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.

  • Executive Summary and Inventory of Real Proper'iy
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND INVENTORY OF REAL PROPER'IY OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA UNDER THE CUSTODY AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF FEDERAL CIVILIAN AGENCIES IN THE STATE OF HAWAII MARCH 17,1993 Prepared by the General Services Administration Office of Governmentwide Real Property Relations (- EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the Fiscal Year 1992 Treasury and Postal Service, and the Department of Defense Appropriations Bills, language was included directing the General Services Administration (GSA), and the Department of Defense (DOD) to conduct an inventory of all real property owned or controlled by the Federal Government in the state of Hawaii. GSA was to conduct the inventory of Federal civilian agencies. DOD was to conduct the inventory of its own properties and submit it to GSA which would submit a complete inventory package to Congress by September 30, 1992. The request for an inventory was prompted principally by the lack of a centralized data base listing and detailing the historic use of Hawaiian lands ceded, set aside, or conveyed since 1898 to the United States Government for use by its agencies for specified public or governmental purposes. A comprehensive, consolidated and verified inventory was considered essential to determine the status of all public lands, ceded, acquired or controlled, in the State of Hawaii. COMMENCEMENT OF INVENTORY The inventory has been conducted and is reported in two segments, civilian agencies and Department of Defense. Civilian agency inventory. Utilizing the services of two real property experts with experience in Hawaii real property and ceded land issues, GSA commenced its inventory of civilian agency real property on March 3, 1992.
